Huayu: Director started with art films

Chapter 334 [This romantic place, a belated coming of age ceremony]

The girl's smile is sweet, lively and cheerful, and comes from the heart. That smile is like a spring breeze, bringing warmth to people in this cold winter.

Li Yishu looked at Jiang Qinqin's smile, and unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "Qinqin, when will the school be closed for vacation?"

Jiang Qinqin said, "Next week, January 1th, we will have a holiday after the final exams are over."

"Then when you have your holiday, come to the Northeast to find me."

"Okay, okay. I've already agreed with Sister Feihong that I'll visit the crew after the winter break."

"..."

The two chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the Xinqiao Sanbao Le Western Restaurant.

This western restaurant mainly serves Russian cuisine and is one of the only two Russian restaurants in Yanjing.

In the past, Xinqiao Hotel was specialized in receiving foreign heads of state. Later in the 1980s, Xinqiao Hotel specially opened a Xinqiao Sanbao Western Restaurant and established one of the first open self-service bakeries in Yanjing.

The business is so booming that the baker in the kitchen bakes bread almost all day long without stopping.

Even today, nearly a decade later, business at Xinqiao Sambo Bakery is still surprisingly good.

People in Yanjing may not be willing to eat Western food, but they can still afford a few pieces of bread.

There were quite a few customers in the Xinqiao Western Restaurant, and looking around, it seemed that most of the seats were full.

Li Yishu arrived at the right time, just as a table of guests was leaving.

As soon as they sat down, a waiter came over with a menu.

Li Yishu asked what the sign inside the store was.

The waiter said, "Our Xinqiao's red stewed mud sausage, soft fried fish, and cream mixed dishes are all very delicious. Guests who come to our restaurant to eat almost always order these three dishes."

"Then let's have these three, and two staple foods and bread."

Li Yishu ordered a few dishes from the menu and handed them to Jiang Qinqin: "Qinqin, what would you like to eat?"

"No, that's enough food."

Jiang Qinqin didn't take the menu, but said hesitantly: "Brother Yishu, can I order a bottle of red wine?"

"You want to drink?"

"Yeah, I want to drink something."

Jiang Qinqin seemed to have thought of something, and a blush appeared on her face, which was very charming under the light.

"Then have a bottle."

Li Yishu didn't notice Jiang Qinqin's expression and handed the menu to the waiter. After the waiter left, he saw Jiang Qinqin's blushing face and asked curiously, "Qinqin, why is your face red?"

"Ah?" Jiang Qinqin touched her face and found it was a little hot. She quickly said, "It might be the heating in the house."

"It's quite hot in the house, take off your down jacket."

Li Yishu took off her coat as she spoke. The heating in the restaurant was sufficient. It was fine when she first came in, but now she felt warm.

Jiang Qinqin responded and took off her down jacket, revealing a black knitted sweater underneath.

The little lotus has just shown its pointed tip.

Cough cough, Li Yishu swore that he really just took a glance subconsciously.

Any normal person would probably take a look at it subconsciously.

"Qinqin, how are you doing in school recently?"

"That's great, brother Yishu. Let me tell you, the company recently signed two new people, both of whom are freshmen. Wenwen and I recommended them!"

"is it?"

"Yes, one is called Jin Qiaoqiao and the other is called Chen Shasha. They are both pretty. Sister Xuan said they are both good candidates."

Jin Qiaoqiao, Chen Shasha?
Li Yishu naturally knew the former, the Peacock Princess in "Journey to the West Sequel", but she was not sure about the latter.

"Manager Zhao said he's a good candidate, so he must be good."

Li Yishu said with a smile: "Qinqin, I didn't expect you have the talent to be a manager."

Jiang Qinqin was a little embarrassed: "No, actually Jinglei told me."

Jiang Qinqin said that Li Yishu listened carefully and said a few words from time to time.

The two chatted and laughed about what happened at school.

After a while, two waiters came over pushing a food cart.

One of them served the food and the other opened the wine.

After everyone left, Jiang Qinqin raised her glass, took a deep breath and said, "Brother Yishu, I'll toast you a glass to thank you for your care over the past few years."

Li Yishu was a little surprised, but still raised her glass and asked with a smile: "Qinqin, why are you so polite today? Is there something wrong?"

"No, I just wanted to thank Yishu."

"Haha, okay, have a drink."

Li Yishu didn't ask any more questions. He took a sip and saw Jiang Qinqin swallow it in one gulp.

Although the red wine was not spicy, it still had a strong taste. After Jiang Qinqin drank it in one gulp, her face immediately frowned.

"If you can't drink, drink less and eat more vegetables."

"It's okay. I'm happy today."

While eating and drinking, Jiang Qinqin talked about a lot of things, including things about school and friends around her. Before she knew it, she had drunk two glasses of wine by herself.

Seeing her blushing face and wanting to pour wine, Li Yishu stood up and took the wine glass away, "Okay, let's stop here today, drink less."

"Oh." Jiang Qinqin responded with a pout.

Ten minutes later.

After the two of them had eaten and drunk their fill, Li Yishu asked, "Are you full?"

"Yeah, I'm full. My stomach can't hold any more."

"Then let's go back. It's getting late."

After paying the money, Li Yishu put on her tweed coat and Jiang Qinqin also put on her down jacket.

The two of them left the western restaurant. Seeing that he didn't go to the car, Jiang Qinqin said in surprise: "Brother Yishu, the car is over there!"

"Don't drink and drive."

Li Yishu shook his head. Although there is no rule against drinking and driving now, he had followed it for more than ten years in his previous life and it had already become a habit.

Even though no one is investigating or caring now, Li Yishu still cherishes her life.

He had finally gotten a chance to live a new life, with money, status, and beauties all to himself. He didn't want to take another gamble.

So even if he just drank two glasses of red wine, he was reluctant to drive.

"It's going to be a long way to walk back." Jiang Qinqin tilted her head. It's about five or six kilometers to walk from Chongwenmen to Nanluoguxiang.

"Who said we were going to walk?"

Li Yishu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Can't you hail a taxi?"

"Yes, you can take a taxi."

Jiang Qinqin's brain was a little slow to react because she had drunk some wine. After she realized that she could take a taxi, she couldn't help but smile foolishly.

"Let's go."

Li Yishu looked at her blushing face, walked over, took her hand, and walked towards the side of the road.

"I'll take you back first..."

"I don't want to go back yet."

Jiang Qinqin blushed and said, "Brother Yishu, let's go for a walk."

"Then take a walk to help digest the food."

Li Yishu nodded and led her for a stroll on the streets of Yanjing.

It's still a little after seven o'clock, and the street is still quite busy, with many people walking on both sides of the road.

As they were walking, Jiang Qinqin suddenly called out, "Brother Yishu, it seems to be snowing."

Hearing this, he looked up at the dark sky. Under the light of the street lamp, he could vaguely see tiny snowflakes falling.

Li Yishu said, "It's snowing, let's go quickly before it snows too heavily."

As he spoke, he took a few steps forward.

"Yeshu bro."

"what happened?"

Li Yishu turned around and looked at Jiang Qinqin.

Under the dim street lights, Jiang Qinqin's face looked like peach blossoms, and the snow around her looked like poplar flowers, making her look even more charming. This reminded Li Yishu of the scene in the Yi village a few years ago.

The face of the man and the peach blossoms complement each other. That time and that moment are just like this moment.

Jiang Qinqin blushed and said coquettishly: "I can't walk anymore, I want you to carry me."

"Okay, I'll carry you."

Li Yishu smiled. He didn't expect that Jiang Qinqin, who was drunk, would still act like a coquettish person. He walked over and half squatted down. The next second, he felt a sinking sensation on his back.

Li Yishu stood up and weighed the person on his back, then said, "Qinqin, you've lost a bit of weight. You're less than 100 kilograms, right?"

"Eighty-nine pounds."

"You're too thin. Eat more later."

"Know it."

"..."

Li Yishu carried Jiang Qinqin on his back and chatted as they walked. He didn't walk fast and Jiang Qinqin lay obediently on his back, feeling very happy.

"Yeshu bro."

"how?"

“I don’t want to go back to school.”

"Huh? Don't want to go back to school?"

"it's me……"

Jiang Qinqin blushed, put her head close to Li Yishu's ear, and whispered, "I like you, Yishu brother. I have liked you for a long time. I...I want to be with you."

Li Yishu was slightly stunned: "Qinqin, do you know what you are talking about?"

"I know, I...I've wanted to be with you for a long time. I thought about it on my birthday last year, but I was drunk."

Jiang Qinqin's face became redder and redder, burning hot, as if she had just walked out of a furnace.

Hearing this, Li Yishu suddenly realized. No wonder last September, on Jiang Qinqin's 18th birthday, she kept clamoring to drink and finally got herself drunk.

In the end, no one mentioned asking for the birthday present on that day as agreed.

Li Yishu didn't take it seriously at the time, thinking that the little girl was just happy to have grown up. The next day, he was in a hurry to go to the United States, so he left in a hurry.

"Have you made up your mind?"

"Ah."

The voice was very soft, but Li Yishu still heard it. It was not difficult to imagine how shy Qinqin felt behind her.

Even though he had known for a long time that Jiang Qinqin had a crush on him, and he also liked this girl very much, it was only a matter of time before they got together. However, he never expected that in the end, it was Jiang Qinqin who would speak up first.

"Then let's go!"

"where to?"

"Open house!"

Li Yishu is not some innocent boy. Jiang Qinqin has said so, so shouldn't he, as a grown man, take the initiative?

After all, Liuxiahui, who could remain calm even when a beautiful woman sat on his back, is a rare person. Who can resist a beautiful woman asking for sex from behind?
Hearing this, Jiang Qinqin's face turned even redder, and she lowered her head on Li Yishu's back, feeling both happy and nervous.

The dry taste of red wine lingering between lips and teeth makes people intoxicated, and the delicate body of the girl makes people unable to stop, everything is so natural.

The snow, moon, wind and flowers here are not worth telling to outsiders.

I don’t know how long time passed.

In the hotel room,
The heating was turned on very high, and the heat made people feel dry and thirsty.

In a daze, Jiang Qinqin opened her eyes and vaguely saw Li Yishu standing up. She asked in a daze, "Yi...Yishu, what time is it?"

Her voice was a little hoarse, partly because of shouting and partly because of dry mouth.

"It's still early, you should sleep a little longer." Li Yishu turned around and touched her little face.

"Well, I want some water."

"I'll pour it for you."

Li Yishu stood up and poured a glass of warm water.

When he reached the bed, he saw Jiang Qinqin had fallen into a deep sleep again, so he placed the cup of water on the bedside table.

She turned around and walked into the bathroom. While washing up, she recalled what happened last night. She couldn't help but smile. She didn't expect that Qinqin was such a brave girl.

Until about eight in the morning.

Jiang Qinqin just woke up in a daze, and saw a glass of water on the bedside table. She didn't care that the water was cold, and drank it in one gulp.

click-

Suddenly there was a sound outside and she quickly picked up the sheet and wrapped herself in it.

"woke up?"

It was Li Yishu who came in. When he saw Jiang Qinqin woke up, he smiled, raised the breakfast in his hand and said, "I brought you breakfast. Go wash up and eat."

"Brother Yishu...you, you go out first." Jiang Qinqin blushed and felt a little embarrassed.

"Okay, I'll go out first."

Li Yishu suddenly found it funny. No wonder Jiang Qinqin asked for a drink last night. It turned out that she wanted to drink to give herself courage.

"No! Forget it."

Seeing that Li Yishu was about to leave, Jiang Qinqin quickly asked him to stay.

He said happily: "So should I go out or not?"

"Just carry it on your back."

"Okay, I'll turn my back and not look."

Seeing Li Yishu turned his back, Jiang Qinqin blushed and stood up to pick up the clothes on the bed.

A few minutes later.

The two of them sat on the edge of the bed and started to eat breakfast. Perhaps she was really hungry, Jiang Qinqin stuffed a few big buns with her stomach and drank a bowl of porridge. Only then did she feel her stomach and feel comfortable.

Suddenly her face changed and she exclaimed, "Oh no, Yishu, I still have classes today!"

"It's okay, I've asked for leave for you."

Li Yishu smiled and said, "I've asked for three days off for you. Take a good rest these days."

"No, the final exam is coming soon."

Jiang Qinqin shook her head: "I'd better go to class in the afternoon."

"You should take a three-day break, you..."

Before Li Yishu finished speaking, Jiang Qinqin's face turned red and she lowered her head and said, "It's okay. I've been practicing Peking Opera since I was a child, and getting injured is a common thing."

"I need to rest, and I have changed my flight to tomorrow at noon."

"Yeah, then go to class tomorrow."

Upon hearing that Li Yishu was not leaving today, Jiang Qinqin nodded happily.

In the morning, Li Yishu and Jiang Qinqin did not go out, but just rested in the hotel.

It was not until noon that the two of them left the hotel. They first went to the nearby Xinqiao Western Restaurant and had lunch there. Then they picked up the car and returned to the courtyard in Nanluoguxiang.

Although it was her first time tasting the forbidden fruit, Jiang Qinqin was a little tempted. After returning to the courtyard, she was not afraid of being disturbed because there were no outsiders around, so she spent the whole day with Li Yishu.

It was not until seven o'clock the next morning that Li Yishu drove Jiang Qinqin back to Beijing Film Academy.

He took his suitcase and went straight to the airport.

On the way, Li Yishu called Yongmei and asked her to wait until Jiang Qinqin had winter vacation and then arrange for her to come to the Northeast crew.

That evening.

Liaoning Film Studio.

Zhao Fei introduced: "Director Li, this is Director Ma of Liaoning Film Studio, and this is Deputy Director Xing."

"Director Ma, Deputy Director Xing, thank you both for your support."

Li Yishu shook hands with the two studio leaders enthusiastically. Many things that happened in the "Fireworks in the Daytime" crew were really thanks to the Liaoning Film Studio.

For example, the filming, extras including some supporting roles, etc., were all helped by the Liaoning Film Studio.

"Director Li is too polite."

Director Ma said with a smile: "It is an honor for us in Shenyang that Director Li can come to our Shenyang to film."

"Director Ma, you are too kind. Shenyang is a famous historical city with many years of cultural heritage. I am honored to receive the support of the people of Shenyang."

Some pleasantries.

Director Ma had already arranged dinner in the factory, so Li Yishu naturally followed the host's wishes.
